Family

It's officially the offseason! I flew home from my last race of the season in China and was greeted by Lisa, my brother Aaron, and my sister-in-law Amanda. The four of us left the very next morning for a 5 day trip to Italy and Switzerland. We visited Lucerne, Bellagio (and the lake Como area), and a bit of the Swiss mountains in between! It was cool to have Aaron & Amanda here, and great to start the off-season with some fun. Lisa and I are now spending a few last days in Girona before we head back to the states for a couple months. A photo recap of our adventures is below!
